Spring Cleaning: Master Suite

I am far behind my goals for spring cleaning, but slowly moving forward and readjusting my plans to finish by March 31st. This week I have been working on the master suite and did the bulk of the work today. Here's what we did. I don't have before pictures this time around since my camera batteries were dead when I began.

- washed windows inside and out (thanks to my wonderful husband)

- detail vacuumed

- washed baseboards

- dusted

- flipped mattress

- washed mattress pad, bedskirt and sheets and changed out the duvet cover and shams to this springy set

- tidied up my closet (but not a full scale decluttering)

- cleared the clutter

- scrubbed the shower (I do this while I am taking a shower and use a spare pair of exfoliating gloves to scrub the tile, which seems to be the easiest way to clean the shower so far, using just a bit of shampoo or some safe cleaning products.)

- scrubbed the toilet

- washed bathroom floor

- cleared and washed bathroom counter

- shined the mirror

And here is the finished result. Again, sorry about the quality of the photos.
